YELLOW

yellow is bright and happy. It represents the sunny sun that shines so bright and light over the sky everday.
It is delightful. It is summer! Sun gives you a tan and sunburn. Yellow keeps you excited and willing to go to places. And yellow is my bestfriend. It makes me willing to smile and laugh. Places such as China. The yellow represents the skin of asian people. Since we have yellow skin. I think about memories and time I spend with my friends. I think about the beach with the sun hovering over the sand. Sand burning on my feet and the sand. I think about pretty clothes that are bright and shiny. At night, candle light shines brightly and there is laughter and joy spreading around. It makes people laugh and spread the pleasure of happiness.

CHOCOLATE

chocolate is sweet and loving. It represents caring and kindness. It brings happiness and laughter to people.
It is sugar and brings vibrant energy to life. It accompanies people to joy.

You forgot to capitalize the "c" in la chocolat. You must capatalize because it starts at the beginning of the sentance. You use "it" a lot. Actually chocolate is supposed to make you sleepy but I guess in your opinion it beings vibrant energy to life. You don't have to tell me it's sugar because since it's sweet of course there is sugar. That was very josephy. I like the verbs. For the second sentence maybe you could say "It is an emblem of caring and kindness."

ummmm..urghh
wow. so it does make me happy.

WATER

water is clear and blue. It is relaxing and soothing. Water swims through your body. It cleanses your soul. it is essential to life. Water is 90% of the earth. It reminds me of oceans with ulmitate ideas. And water is mysterious, where it is unlimited. It is continously moving and unstoppable. Water is a flow of elements.
And it is one of the elements with fire, wood, and wind. It symbolizes trust, love, and beauty. water is cold but has the warmth inside. water of life. Oceans refect the surface of the skies' colors with the blue and red.

Water is clear and blue. the yellows shines on top of the water in the ocean. I am sitting at the beachside, eating chocolate and reading a book. All three objects are somehow in motion. Water is flowing near the beachside. The yellow flowers are moving through the wind. And chocolate is moving in someones hand and being eaten. Cocoa beans grow in Hawaii and are pulled, moved, stored by people.

-laughter
-vibrant energy
-relaxing
-pleasure of happiness
- joy

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The sun of vibrant energy.
The bath relaxes your soul.
When I accomplish a goal, a rush of happiness hits me. And I can not stop smiling.
